Tuesday

Today was a testing day for our class.  The students took reading/language arts tests in the areas of comprehension, grammar, and phonics.  The students are able to see their scores directly after submitting them.  I also record the score individually in Synergy, our online grade book. Grades can be viewed at anytime by visiting the Pioneer website.

Tomorrow the third graders will be taking the Unit 1 Math test.  It covers all skills and concepts covered so far this school year.  This includes rounding, comparing, and ordering numbers.

As you know, this is a short school week.  There is no school on Thursday or  Friday.

TOMORROW IS PICTURE DAY!

We spent one last day on rounding numbers to the nearest ten, hundred, or thousand.  The students will have a review day tomorrow with a Unit 1 test on Wednesday.
Today's assignment was PW18.

There is a reading comprehension passage to read with questions to answer.
 Students should also finish up reading their RC books from the library so that quizzes can be taken by Wednesday when it's time for checking out new books.
Tomorrow is a testing day for the concepts and skills the students have been working on for the past week.  This includes spelling/reading long o, as well as common and proper nouns.

Thursday

NO SCHOOL for students tomorrow.  It is a teacher in-service day.

Please have your third grader do some extra reading and fact practice over the weekend.

Enjoy the great weather!

Students checked out new library books today.  They are expected to read one of the shorter RC books tonight to be quizzed on in the morning.

In Math we are learning to round numbers to the nearest 10, 100, and 1,000.

TUESDAY

In Math we learned to round numbers to the nearest 10.  The homework assignment is PW17.

We read the story Pop's Bridge in our reading text book.  The students could also listen to/read this book online by going to Mrs. Girtz's (Google) Classroom.  The students know how to find this on the 3rd grade Symbaloo page.

The spelling assignment today is page 55 in the reading workbook.

Remember tomorrow is our library day!  Books need to be returned or brought back to be renewed.  The students are also expected to take Reading Counts quizzes on two of the library books that were checked out.
